Description Jimisola Laursen CLA 2006-06-08 09:22:02 EDT 
Since I now use multi projects with dependencies between them I sometime need to refresh more than one project. It would be time-saving if I could mark relevant projects, right-click and then choose refresh.

Jimisola, what do yo mean by 'mark' ? You can multi-select elements in the Package Explorer and select 'Refresh' from the context menu (or hit F5)...
Comment 2 Jimisola Laursen CLA 2006-06-08 10:23:46 EDT 
My mistake. Yes, you can multi-select and refresh.

However, I have _many_ projects and one of them was closed. Appearently, when there is a closed project in the selection the Refresh option does not show.
Don't know if this is the best of behaviours. Perhaps it would be better to allow  the refresh option in the context menu or F5, but if there are closed projects in the selection then show a warning/info dialog (with an option "Do not show this in the future). Pretty much as if I choose Run/Debug and there are files that haven't been saved.
